Explanation Given information: ( 4 , 3 ) Concept Used: To derive the relationship between polar coordinates and rectangular coordinates, we consider a point P with rectangular coordinates (x, y) and polar coordinates (r, θ). To convert back and forth between polar and rectangular coordinates, we simply use the relationships that exist amount x, y, r, and θ. To convert Rectangular Coordinates to Polar Coordinates: r = ± x 2 + y 2 a n d tan θ = y x , the sign of r and the choice of θ place the point (r, θ) in the same quadrant as (x, y). To convert polar coordinates to rectangular coordinates: x = r cos θ a n d y = r sin θ The process of converting to rectangular coordinates is simply a matter of substituting r and θ into the preceding equations. To convert the polar coordinates, we have to choose θ and the sign of r so the point (r, θ) is in the same quadrant as the point (x, y). Calculation: Steps Description ( 4 , 3 ) Given rectangular coordinate ( x , y ) ⇒ ( 4 , 3 ) Identify the x and y x = 4 y = 3 r = x 2 + y 2 <
